Thanks everyone for equipment recommendations in my earlier post. My farm is in NE Iowa. I have small, hilly fields--most are 10-40 acres in size. Many folks recommended a 4-16 plow for my 806.

I've seen old-style trailer plows and fast hitch plows and have heard of semi-mounted plows.

My 806 has a 3pt, so a fast hitch plow is out.

What other types of 4-16 plows are out there?

What type is best/easiest to use?

Does the brand matter? There's lots of green in my area.

I have small fields--is one type of plow better at making turns than others?

Thanks again for helping a newbie farmer.

Do yourself a favor and find either a 710 IH or 720 or a set of Oliver plows these are of the high clearance stile spring resets are good if ya got rocks . You can cut down a IH plow , like if ya find a 710 6 bottom ya can cut the back two bottoms off and it is easy to do as there are holes down the back bone for the tail wheel and all ya have to do is drop the bottoms off that ya don't want and rebolt the tailwheel and shorten the coupling pole and cut of the excesse backbone. I have made a lot of 6 bottoms into 3and4 bottoms.
